Safety Tow Chain; Setting The Mower - RHINO FC-0110 Operator's Manual

5.5 Safety Tow Chain

If the implement is towed on a public roadway, a safety chain with tensile strength equal to or greater than the
gross weight of the implement must be connected between the tractor and implement. This will help control the
implement in the event the tongue becomes disconnected from the drawbar. Make sure the chain is attached
to a secure location on the tractor and not to an intermediate support.
After connecting both ends of the safety chain, drive the tractor to the right and left to check for proper chain
length. Adjust length as necessary and allow only enough slack in the chain to make a maximum turn in both
directions. When not in use, store the safety chain to protect it from mud or standing water by wrapping the
chain around the tongue. Replace the safety chain if one or more links or end fittings are broken, stretched or
otherwise damaged or deformed. OPS-U-0039 str

6.SETTING THE MOWER

Properly setting the cutting height is essential for efficient and safe operation. A properly set mower will make
a more uniform cut, distribute clippings more evenly, require minimal tractor work, and follow the contour of
uneven terrain. NOTE: Avoid very low cutting heights, striking the ground with the blades gives the most
damaging shock loads and will cause damage to the mower and drive. Blades contacting the ground may
cause objects to be thrown out from under the mower deck. Always avoid operating the mower at a height
which causes the blades to contact the ground. OPS-U- 0010 str
Never work under the Implement, the framework, or any lifted
component unless the Implement is securely supported or blocked up to
prevent sudden or inadvertent falling which could cause death or serious
injury.
